Grandpa:And Max is some boy.

Richard:He's a real Stewart.

Grandpa:Right!

Ellen:That was so thoughtful of you, 4 Michelle. Especially to pick it out in blue.

Susan:Would you like to see baby Max, Michelle?

Marilyn:Take them upstairs, Susan. Harry and

Michelle can watch Max sleeping.

Philip:Michelle is very grown up 6 for a ten-year old 7, huh?

Ellen:She's smart and sensitive 8 for her age.

Grandpa:Growing up without a mother is difficult You mature quickly.

Ellen:Susan's like a mother to Michelle. They have a good relationship. Do you think Susan and Harry will get married?

Robbie:Yeah. You can count on it.


Philip:I think so. Yes. They get along so well. Grandpa:I like him. He's good for Susan.

Ellen:He's a little quiet.

Richard:It's hard to do anything but listen in this family.

Ellen:How can anybody get a word in around here?

Marilyn:You're right, Ellen.

Philip:Oh, really?

Richard:It's the way it should be. 15 The Stewarts are the Stewarts!

Grandpa:They always were, and they always will be. Richard:Right!

Grandpa:They've always got an opinion. Always got something to say.

Marilyn:And now there's Max Stewart, and if he talks as loudly as he cries, we're all in for trouble.

Robbie:He's quiet now.

Marilyn:Mmm-hmm. That's because he's sleeping.

In Marilyn and Richard's room. Susan, Harry, and Michelle are watching Max as he sleeps.

Harry:He's really cute.

Susan:It's not necessary to whisper, Harry. A baby gets used to voices.

Harry:I remember now. We always whispered when

Michelle was born.

Michelle:And I didn't sleep well. Daddy told me. I never slept. And when I did, I woke up when I heard someone speak.

Susan:I bet you were cute.

Harry:She sure was.

Michelle:Not as cute as Max. 20 He's like a little doll. [The baby starts to cry. ]

Michelle:Oh, good. Now I can help diaper 21 him. Susan:Let's get Marilyn. What do you do when he cries like that?

Harry:You pick him up.

Susan:He's so little…so new. Let's call Marilyn. Marilyn:Time for a feeding 22 and time for adiapering. You're a real Stewart.
